Comment on Notification help

  It’s not an Android issue. I suspect it’s the launcher you’re using.

  Here’s an example on my Galaxy Fold 4, using AIO Launcher:

  As you can see, there’s a notification from Discord. So I click on the app, and not only is the badge cleared, the notification is also gone from the notification center. So it’s all working as intended.

  If this isn’t the behavior you’re experiencing, I’d suggest switching to an alternate launcher. Niagara Launcher is a great option - pretty simple, clean and relatively bug-free, and integrated notifications right into the launcher so you can actually read the notification, instead of just a red dot. (The launcher I use, AIO Launcher, also does that - but it’s information-heavy Ness and unusual layout may put off people, especially ex-iPhone users, so I don’t normally recommend it to others).

    Launcher? I think the one I am using is called One UI version: 5.1.1

    What you’re describing is the behaviour I had expected to universal across Android, but is launcher specific?

      A launcher is just your home screen, it’s not a big deal switching to a different one, that’s one of the cool things about Android. I’m on a Z Fold as well btw. You can have multiple launchers installed at one time - you just change your default from the settings, so if you don’t like your new launcher you can always switch back.

      Samsung’s software used to be very buggy from the start to about OneUI 3, which is where my parents’ phones stopped getting updates so I don’t know about the newer stuff. But they didn’t get their shit together from 2008 to 2021, so I’ll make an educated guess and say that they probably didn’t do it in the last 2 years either.
